dear Suvi! you're always so logical in your musings about the Hobbit. Better than me for i'm still. in coherent. Well good points you've raised about how things are going to be. Howard Shore and Weta coming back are definite musts for i think another Oscars are locks if they are. ;) But yes, it'll be interesting on who's going to write the script... i hope PJ does it as well too... but not butcher it too badly...

(btw, what is "FTW"--- i always see it and am not sure...) :P "By Elbereth and Luthien the fair, you shall have neither the Ring nor me!" ~Frodo

"And then Gandalf arose and bid all men rise, and they rose, and he said: 'Here is a last hail ere the feast endeth. Last but not least. For I name now those who shall not be forgotten and without whose valour nought else that was done would have availed; and I name before you all Frodo of the Shire and Samwise his servant. And the bards and the minstrels should give them new names: Bronwe athan Harthad and Harthad Uluithiad , Endurance beyond Hope and Hope Unquenchable.." ~Gandalf, The End of the Third Age , from The History of Middle Earth series
